Some people say airborne viruses are successful because they hit us in our weak spot, our lungs.

Excellent comment by an ex-republican on a podcast I was listening to was that polls are not for telling you what's going to happen. They're for selling things (ideas).

“I’m about to cancel all my Zoom meetings.” It was May 2021, and Jamie Dimon had had enough. The JPMorgan Chase CEO expected that “sometime in September, October,” the company’s office would “look just like it did before.” Two years later, his company is slashing its Manhattan footprint by a fifth."

COVID-19 took measles out back and absolutely SHOT IT DEAD.
1 sick player infected 100% OF BOTH HOCKEY TEAMS - 42 people - then another 102 spectators.
172 people in total.
You can watch it sweep the first team then the second team then the stands in the epi curves.
Wow.

I propose the 99 cent moonshot:
Wear a respirator.
Sure, it's not 100%. (What is, eh?)
However, it's a hell of a lot better than ten billion wishful dollars which, even if they arrive, are highly unlikely to magically fix whatever huge number of disparate pieces of the human body the virus has wrecked on its travels.

Gastrointestinal problems and coronaviruses
---
I did not realize this was contentious.
Coronaviruses can survive the acid in a stomach and infect GI.
Here is an article about MERS doing so. CoVs do so in lots of animals.
Saying enveloped viruses cannot survive stomach & attack GI is not accurate.

For anyone reading this, he means "Airborne" as in the three pathogens that require Airborne precautions.
Those are _defined_ as TB, measles and chickenpox.
They are "airborne" because they are "Airborne."
It is totally ludicrous, yes.

Something I've been thinking about lately is that it's too much work for people to learn the histories of political people.
We almost need a website that summarizes their views.
The world moves too quickly for everybody to do independent research on candidates and representatives.
In fact, this isn't limited to political figures. News outlets are the same. There are some excellent small outlets that nobody knows about. (Although at least on this issue there are some news ranking sites)

"The judge said that the former president’s “complete lack of contrition” bordered on pathological."
Trump's lack of contrition borders on pathological the way Russia borders on the Ukraine.

Koch thread
TIL Daddy Koch (Frank Koch) stole intellectual property from his employer and got sued. That meant when he was setting up oil refining plants he had to do so outside the United States. He went to Russia, which did not respect IP rights.
When he came back to America he was paranoid that the Soviets were taking over the government. He wrote manifestos about it. He submerged his children - the Koch brothers Charles and David (I think) in this paranoia.
This explains a lot.

All Republicanism / modern conservativism is talking points.
There are no morals.
There is no consistent philosophy.
That is all.
It's all just whatever issue to beat you over the head with. They'll turn around and do the same. They don't care. It's not about morals. It's just about beating you on the head.
So I appreciate the jokes about their inconsistent views, but they're not inconsistent. They're completely consistent in fact. All lies.

The history of airborne transmission.
Our paper will teach the history of droplet transmission of viruses from "they never existed and some rich white guy guessed they did" right through to "they still don't exist and rich white guys don't want to admit it"

Clarence Thomas, Samuel Alito, and the bought and paid for Supreme Court of the United States
.
"Thomas also reportedly became “close personal friends” through the organization—named after the author whose “rags-to-riches” stories stirred Gilded Age Americans—with businessman David Sokol, who with other Horatio Alger members helped fund a documentary on Thomas to counter an HBO documentary recounting Anita Hill’s sexual harassment allegations against him."
